Unique is My Dove Lyrics

Artist: Matisyahu
Album: Youth

On the way into this world, our soul was torn in twoSearching for you I've been searching for youWhere ya been? Where ya running to?Where ya gotta go? What ya gotta to do?

I don't care where we going... just want to be with youPut your head on my shoulder- tell me what you've been throughWhen I lose my focus you remind me of the truthLift us up to the heavens for a bird eye view

We could forget about galus for awhileOur troubles for awhileSometimes I look at you and just smileSit in a park... just laugh all daySometimes I just lose it with the things that you sayWaiting by the subway, but we missed the trainWe'll take the next one if you can pull me awayKeep me cool, down to earth and no anxietyStay modest with a humble heart always

(chorus)

We don't need no umbrella when we're walking in the rainSunlight, dark clouds- it's all the sameDon't need no umbrella when we're walking in the rain

So smart and sharp- oh so lovelyInner beauty, shine bright- yes you're there for meKeep the ways of our fathers how it used to beMoving forward don't mean erase our history

Look to your ways and see a girl who wants to do the right thingDedicated to a life bigger than you or meBuild a temple in our hearts for his MajestyStay simple, serve G-d, then keep our deeds clean

(chorus)

by giloch on 11/15/2008 12:43pmI saw that in other songs, why the word god is censured? or what's the matter?

by Jarrod on 11/18/2008 4:00pm...God shouldn't be censored. We don't censor the word "Buddha" or "Allah," why should we censor God? It's almost as if you're favoriting other religions and putting down Christianity.

by Elisheva on 11/30/2008 10:54pmIt's a Jewish thing where you have to be careful not to say the Name in disrespect. Better not to say it or write it than be disrespectful.

by Garrett on 2/22/2009 2:29pmThe Talmud restricts observant jews from writing down the name of God.

by Steph on 2/26/2009 8:33pmG-d is written that way because it's a very holy word and it's disrespectful to write the whole thing.

by Josh on 10/14/2009 2:31amIn Hebrew God's name is never written all the way out, so that it is respected and kept holy. (if you know anything about how Hebrew is written, the vowel marks are not written)

Sometimes people, particularly Jews, imitate this when they write in English by leaving out the "o".

by Erik on 7/8/2010 5:49pmWhen you write the full name of g-d and can be erased, destroyed, or thrown out.

by Franc on 8/24/2011 6:11pmWriting "G-d" is an act of Respect. Orthodox Jews, write "L-rd" too.
